Foster Care Education Support
Students in foster care are entitled to educational stability and support as outlined by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). We work closely with local and statewide child welfare agencies to make sure students in foster care are supported both academically and socially.
Foster Care students have the right to:
Remain in their school of origin when it is in their best interest
Enroll immediately in a new school, even without records
Receive transportation support when needed
If you are a foster parent, caregiver, or caseworker, we are here to support you.
